They looked much the better side to begin with, even if they didn't do anything. Then we started getting on the ball a bit, won it high a few times and looked like we'd taken charge. Evened out again now, we look a bit ragged.

Decent half against a very capable team. We are very much in this.

Real poor quality game, summed up by us holding onto the ball with all our players in the box and about 5 seconds of he half remaining.
Neither team can hold onto it for more than 3 passes. They are outstanding in the air and when they had 5-10 throwing long balls up we looked under pressure. We've had the better chances but they look dangerous when they come forward. Don't really know what the answer is. They all look tired and a bit bored.
Another f*cking weirdo of a ref too.

Forde looks exhausted. Needs a rest. Beccles 50p ing it left right and centre. Ruel not in the game. Moncor brief glimpses but not enough. Galbraith having his poorest game for a while.

Entertaining but frustrating with all this side short passing. Everything seems to be happening down the left - Forde's hardly had a look in. Wonder how many headers there've been? Come on O's - they haven't been better than you.

Not a poor game at all. Much better than the weekend but Sotiriou, Moncur, Forde not on form so far. I can't see the second half being goal free.

I think it'll settle down. Both teams are going at at 100mph which is why its so frantic. When both teams start to tire a bit and take stock i think we might take a hold of the game a bit more.
I'd be very tempted to take off Forde for one of the kids...he looks shattered and has made the wrong decision every time he's got the ball so far.

Sotiriou never really challenges for the ball in the air. He makes a faint effort to jump for it after the defender has cleared/controlled it. He needs to toughen up a bit and get stuck in.
